Malaysia Airlines MH370 News, Update: Did Missing Jet Plunge Nose-First Into the Indian Ocean?
Several theories attempting to explain the mysterious disappearance of the Malaysian Flight MH370 have come and gone. This recent version, however, presents a sophisticated computer-generated representation of the said aerial accident.
A report from Express.co.uk cited an "advanced computer calculations" from a group made up of academics from U.S. institutions as well as representatives from the Qatar Environment and Energy Research Institute.
Leading the team is Dr. Goong Chen, an applied mathematics expert at the Texas A&M University.
According to them, the Boeing 777 jet "was most likely to have launched into a vertical dive, entering the water cleanly and without the fuselage breaking up."
The findings from the mentioned individuals were accompanied with a series of simulations to clearly illustrate their assumption.
They presented a series of forensic calculations with the information taken from the last officially confirmed whereabouts of the jetliner.
Towards their conclusion, they establish that the "total-disappearance of the jet could be best explained by a 'vertical water entry crash,' which probably saw the aircraft plunging at a 90 degree angle into the southern Indian Ocean."
They further posited that MH370 "would have remained intact before sinking to the ocean floor."
"The true final moments of MH370 are likely to remain a mystery until someday when its black box is finally recovered and decoded. But forensics strongly supports that MH370 plunged into the ocean in a nosedive," Dr. Chen told the Express U.K.
The passenger aircraft vanished mysteriously with 239 people onboard on March 8 last year as it traversed the path en route Kuala Lumpur to Beijing..
